• b479bfd00   DocBook: Use a fixed encoding for output ... Browse Code »

  Currently the encoding of documents generated by DocBook depends on
  the current locale. Make the output reproducible independently of
  the locale, by setting the encoding to UTF-8 (LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8) by
  preference, or ASCII (LC_CTYPE=C) as a fallback.

  LC_CTYPE can normally be overridden by LC_ALL, but the top-level
  Makefile unsets that.
